HELENSBURGH, AUSTRALIA, December 23, 2003: The Rajagopurams for Lord Venkateswara, Lord Siva and Goddess Thirupurasundari have now been completed. The Ashtabhandana Maha Kumbhabhishekam celebration of Sri Venkateswara Temple, in Helensburgh, is taking place on Sunday the 1st of February, 2004, between 5:30 a.m. and noon. Consecration ceremonies will take place from Thursday January 29 to Saturday January 31. Construction of the main Sri Venkateswara temple started in 1978 when a small group of people had a vision to build a Hindu temple according to Vedic principles. The Maha Kumbhabhishekam for the temple was held in June 1985. Masons and Sthapathi arrived from India to work on the recent 4-year project constructing the Rajagopurams and cultural hall.
